Apple opens Job vacancies in UAE

US technology giant Apple is looking to recruit
new employees for its operations in the UAE.As of this month, the tech giant
has posted 18 positions on the careers page of its official website, with roles
ranging from store manager, inventory specialist to business manager.

Candidates being sought after are those with
strong communication skills, ability to drive positive customer experiences and
strong interest in technology, particularly Apple products. Some roles prefer
applicants who are fluent in English, although bilingual skills have not been
specified. Desired education degrees can vary from one position to another,
with some roles requiring graduates of business administration, economics or
engineering.

In October 2015, the company marked its
official foray into the Middle East market with the opening of two Apple stores
in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Subsequently, in June 2016, two more Apple shops, said
to be the largest in any travel retail in the world, opened in Terminal 3 of
Dubai airport.

are now moving towards cloud technology, hence the need for professionals with
technical and commercial experience in the area. The introduction of

“There remains a very strong talent pool of
professionals in the Middle East, however, as we see developments in technology
and taxation laws, there is a real demand to relocate professionals with a
